    Hello,

    The first two are the same bush but one's a close-up on the black berries it has. Also, the leaves are kind of waxy and it's about 6'.
    The second one spreads like a groundcover but not too much.
    The third one is the yellow bushes. They are about 2 feet high.
    The fourth one has two photos. Again, one close-up.


    cheers!

    I just realized that the first one is a Privet. Does anyone know if there are different kinds? Or what kind this one is?

    3. Looks like Ceratostigma. Possibly C. plumbaginoides. The leaves turn that lovely colour in the autumn.

    4. Looks like Lonicera nitida Baggesen's Gold. It is a rather vigorous shrub, but can be hard pruned into shape.. as your pic shows.

    It is also used instead of box for dwarf hedges.
